Abstract

A hot-rolled steel sheet wherein an average pole density of orientation group of {100}<011> to {223}<110> is 1.0 to 5.0 and pole density of crystal orientation {332}<113> is 1.0 to 4.0. The hot-rolled steel sheet includes, as a metallographic structure, by area %, 30% to 99% ferrite and bainite in total, and 1% to 70% martensite. The hot-rolled steel sheet satisfies Expression 1: dia≦13 μm, and also satisfies Expression 2: TS/fM×dis/dia≧500, wherein an area fraction of the martensite is defined as fM in unit of area %, an average size of the martensite is defined as dia in unit of μm, an average distance between the martensite is defined as dis in unit of μm, and tensile strength of the steel sheet is defined as TS in unit of MPa.
